Any questions on the LR mobile workflow? Drop them below 👇🏼
Hi, I'm planning use LR on my iPhone 11. I wonder if you know how to copy and pasted caption info in the Metadata window. At the moment I have to write each individual title/caption for each picture. Do you know how to copy the info to use on every picture in the set? I think the layout of LR on the iPhone is different to on the iPad. Thanks in advance.
Can you start a series of tutorial for lightroom on ipad
@@amitsthakur1 absolutely would love to do this. I do have some ideas in the works!
Дякую Вам за це відео! Воно для мене виявилось дуже корисним!
Зараз думаю стосовно покупки iPad mini 6, він мені потрібен для легкого монтажу відео та обробки фото на ходу. Ваше відео дало мені розуміння, що навіть у 2024 році я можу це робити на iPad mini 6😊
You’re welcome thanks for watching 🙌🏼 Enjoy the iPad Mini! 😄
Just what I needed. Thank you. It was short and very informative.
Amazing. So glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching and dropping a comment too 😄✌🏻
thanks for your efforts, just what i was looking for!
You’re very welcome. So glad it was helpful. Happy editing 😄
You'll get your first 1000 subscribers very soon!! Love your content, keep the good things comming.
Thankyou… we’re getting there 😄
Just found your video at the right time as I'm preparing for a longer trip next week and don't want to bring my MacBook. I also like editing on the iPad mini but always found the workflow syncing to Lightroom Classic where the pictures will live after the trip really unreliable and kind of complicated. Happy to see you do it in the same way as I did in the past and just deal with the pros & cons of this method :) Really nice video and explanation!
Thanks Alex really appreciate it! I really wish the CC/Classic were a bit more seamless (or somehow just have one app for all). Perhaps in the future 🤞🏼
It’s really freeing just tracking with the iPad - I hope you enjoy and have a great trip 🌍
@@HannahYoungPhotography Thank you! Adobe probably would say "Just use Lightroom CC on your Mac - it's that easy!" hahaha
@@alexschmtz haha. So true 😂
So refreshing listening to you, I use Lightroom mobile all the time but learnt from you today about putting photos straight into folders from your card imports. Thanks
Thanks so much for watching and your kind comment - so glad it was helpful too! Happy editing....
Very informative and extremely helpful, thank you.
You’re very welcome. Thanks for watching and really glad it was helpful! 🙌🏼
Excellent work-through, thanks - shared to my camera club.
Thanks so much for watching and sharing. Really appreciate it 😄🙏🏻
Thanks love, really helpful, ta!
Amazing. You are very welcome, happy it was helpful!
hannah the legend.
Too kind. Thank you 😎
I’m really enjoying your channel. Love your easy , minimalist approach to photography . I also use Lightroom on the iPad with a pencil and love it . I’ve not looked into using Lightroom as storage and organising my photos so found your info interesting, might have to look into that. Out of interest which version of Lightroom do you use on your MAC? Would like to see a video of your Lightroom editing, always nice to see others tips and tricks. Keep up your great work👍
Many thanks Steven, really appreciate the support 🙌🏻
I have both CC and classic on my Mac. It is a bit of a 'trick' to work them both into the workflow. Historically I used 'collections' in classic to effectively create synced folders which would create albums in CC. Mostly now I use CC 90% of the time. But I have my NAS rooted through Classic so still use it to archive etc. Hope that made some sort of sense 🤪
I'll definitely have a think about some editing tips too. Its definitely got me thinking about how much actually goes into the process.
Glad you re enjoying the iPad & pencil set-up too 😄
Would love to see a video, How you manage to use both LRCC and LR Classic if possible! @@HannahYoungPhotography
@@jcadventures0824 absolutely. I’ll work on making one… good idea. Stay tuned - hopefully coming soon 🤓
A really nice video Hannah with some helpful tips. I also use Lightroom mobile on a 1TB iPad Pro and am seriously thinking about getting a Creative Cloud 1TB account but my MacBook laptop top is about 5-6 years old and I’m not sure that I could run Lightroom on it, so in two minds.
Thanks David, glad you enjoyed the video. Mmm… tricky one. I’ve been running one of the new Apple chips on my MBP for a few years now so not sure on the older set-ups. Mmm…
Thanks for the reply Hannah 😊
Cool!
Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Question. So do you delete the original files you imported from the SD card after it's been uploaded to the cloud so it will free up space? Then when you toggle the store locally on lr mobile, it takes the images from cloud and stores it within Lightroom mobile locally correct? That way, the locally stored image on Lightroom mobile really has nothing to do with the original files imported from the Lightroom mobile. After complete your LR editing, you'd flip the store locally option back to no so it releases all the stored images within LR mobile. Did I understand it correctly?
Great video! Is there a way to make a virtual copy of an image on the iPad?
Thanks for checking out the video 🙌🏼
As far as I can tell the ‘traditional’ way of creating a virtual copy doesn’t appear to be an option. However, I think it’s been replaced by ‘Versions’. Which is really handy as you can create multiple, name them and switch between. So really the same thing. You’ll see a little clock icon with a backward arrow in the top menu when you’re on the selected photos. From here you can add new version and switch between…
I hope this helps 😄
Beautiful photos!
What camera & lens were they shot with? Hope you don’t mind my asking!
Thank you so much. These were shot on the Sony A7c (mk 1) with the Sony 90mm macro. Fire combo ✌🏻
Any idea how to export photos with 300dpi when editing in lightroom on an ipad?
Keeping your albums in LR means a big cloud storage purchased there in LR? How does your IPad 1TB cloud help here?
Your photography is amazing. What camera lens are you using?
Thanks Max... really appreciate it. Mix of lenses. But often 24, 40 or my 90. More recently have bought a 16-35.....
Hi, thanks for the video. I wonder if your Ipad Mini supports selecting subject and sky as my Ipad doesn't support this. 😢
Hey. Thanks for watching. Yes the iPad Mini does support all the smart masking within Lightroom. Which iPad do you have? 🤔
@@HannahYoungPhotography Ipad Pro (9,7 inch) 2016
@@57sapke mmm I guess it’s not supported the more recent LR updates? That’s a shame 😞
@@HannahYoungPhotography Unfortunately also my Iphone 11 doesn't support this.
@@57sapke oh wow I’m really surprised that you can’t do the Adobe updates even on that. Bummer!!!
If you’re using an a7C II, you should be able to import photos from camera to iPad using just a usb-c cable (unless your iPad is too old).
Good point. This is also an option. I don’t know why but I always just go for the SD card 🙄
Thank you-this was very helpful. The one thing that is keeping me from an iPad workflow is the ability to merge bracketed HDR photos on the iPad. Am I correct that Lightroom Mobile still can't handle this? Much of my photography includes merging bracketed HDR drone photos, so I guess I'm still stuck on the desktop version.
Thanks for watching. As far as I am aware, unfortunately no ability to merge HDR in LR mobile. Which along with file structure/NAS workflow are the reasons I keep Classic running also. I do feel like the HDR feature will be something that will come to mobile in the future. But I guess we’ll have to wait for now 😁
Correct. Indeed HDR and Pano merging is not (yet) available on the iPad version of LR.
I have found a way of achieving this by using Affinity Photo though.
I could share the link to the video showing this but am sensitive not to promote someone else’s video on Hanna’s channel.
In summary though…
1. Copy the WB to each photo so they are all the same.
2. Export the photos to merge to a folder.
3. Import the photos to Affinity Photo (AP)
4. Use AP to achieve the merge.
5. Export merged photo from AP
6. Import the merged photo back into LR.
AP has to be purchased on the iPad for a one-off payment of £17.99 inc VAT. (I use as my alternative to Photoshop)
@@franklovett5813 thank-you! Very happy if you can share the link 🔗 It’s all good leaving. Will be interested to have a watch too. Really appreciate it 🙏🏻
@@HannahYoungPhotography Hi Hannah. Thanks for agreeing for me to post the link to the video about achieving HDR & Pano merging in Lightroom on the iPad.
This is the link to the video from Brian Matiash that I mentioned...

I've been debating between the 64gb and 256gb iPad... Any reason to not get the 256gb and just stick with the 64gb beyond saving some money?
Absolutely no reason not to go for the 256gb. For me I just knew that I wouldn’t need it so didn’t want to spend the extra money if wasn’t going to use it. I think if there’s any doubt always go for the extra storage with Apple as no option to upgrade ✌🏻
Mask slows down on my iPad when I use the brush option I notice a lag/delay in movement when I use it . I have iPad 10th gen
Ah interesting. I haven't noticed myself (yet).... However, I have started to notice some lag using LR desktop but I do suspect it is more to do with my internet connection and things trying to upload etc.
Almost at 1000 subs, let's go!
Whoop. Thanks Joe. Neaaarlllly there 🥳
